Hi, Is there a way to make the Extend feature still work when not passing through a wall? It works perfectly fine as long as it is going through, but when the respective line is deleted in the base sketch, the extend feature breaks. This would be very useful for making custom shaped flanges/tabs in...

When unfolding, is it possible to get the bend angles? AFAIK it is not possible yet. That would be great. ping Do you think it would be possible to code such feature? For example If the angle value could be collected for a bend it would be possible to duplicate the bending line in unfold sketch the...

Since there is no two solid supported in Part design, tool is to be shape binder & applied forming.

Below option is to unfold sheet-metal by suppressing forming feature [Hoping/expecting that it will be last feature in tree view. so top naming issue will not be there].

"DataSuppress Feature (Bool): "Suppress Forming Feature". Default value is false."

I expect the offset to push out Bend002 (the outer sidewalls) like in the picture on the left (simulated with extend), but it does not. (I posted this on the ge...

Another method is sheet metal sketch on face method.

pls see attached sample file.
